The night is fading slowly, and the quiet feels like truth I spent my days in circles, always running, never you I chased a world of shadows, thinking time was on my side But every sunrise wasted cuts a little more inside I thought I'd have forever But forever came too fast Before the last sunrise Hold the ones you love a little closer Speak the words you save for later There may be no later left Before the last sunrise Don’t let the moments slip like water Live the life you keep postponing While there's still a dawn to catch I see the empty spaces where your laughter used to be I filled my hands with hours, but the hours emptied me The road behind is quiet, all the noise begins to fade And now the truth is simple: I would give it all for one more day I always thought tomorrow Would come to save my plans Before the last sunrise Hold the ones you love a little closer Speak the words you save for later There may be no later left Before the last sunrise Don’t let the moments slip like water Live the life you keep postponing While there's still a dawn to catch If I could turn the clocks back I'd choose you every time But time is not returning So let these words be mine Before the last sunrise Love the ones who stand beside you Say the truth you fear to utter Don’t let silence be your end Before the last sunrise Hold their hands a little longer Live the life you meant to live Before the light goes out again
